3. Homepage Audit
- ⚠️ Page load time: 1.52s Acceptable — consider optimizing for faster crawl times.
- ⚠️ Short
<title>(29 chars) Aim for 30–60 chars. Lead with brand or product, then value prop. - ⚠️ Missing canonical link Add
<link rel="canonical" href="https://your-domain">to prevent dup-content confusion. - ❌ Open Graph: missing title, description, image
- ⚠️ No Twitter Card tags Add twitter:card, twitter:title, twitter:description, twitter:image for richer previews in social and AI agent surfaces.
- ⚠️ Content volume: 292 words Thin content. Aim for 300+ words on the homepage so AI models can extract a useful description.
- ✅ Homepage fetched successfully HTTP 200 · 95737 bytes · 1525ms
- ✅ declared

- ✅ Meta description present (65 chars)

- ✅ Heading structure: 14 (h1:1, h2:4, h3:9) Multiple headings help AI chunk and outline your page.
- ✅ Internal links: 9 9 internal + 0 external links help crawlers navigate.
- ✅ Favicon declared
4. Content Quality
- ❌ Text-to-HTML ratio: 2.4% Very low text density. AI crawlers will struggle to find substantive content.
- ⚠️ No date signal found Add or article:published_time meta. AI ranking weights freshness.
- ⚠️ No author byline found Add
<meta name="author" content="Name">or a visible byline withrel="author". Strengthens E-E-A-T signals. - ✅ Heading levels are well-ordered 14 headings nested in order.
- ✅ Snippet-ready blocks: 3 (ul:3, ol:0, table:0) Lists and tables are extracted verbatim by AI answer engines.
- ✅ 1 question-style heading(s) Questions in headings map cleanly to user queries. Pair with FAQPage JSON-LD for max lift.
5. Schema / Structured Data Audit
- ❌ No JSON-LD structured data found Add JSON-LD blocks (Organization, SoftwareApplication, FAQPage, BreadcrumbList) so AI answer engines can ingest your data without guessing.
6. Links & Images
- ✅ No broken links in first 3 HEAD-probed the first 20 unique homepage links — all 2xx/3xx.
7. Performance
- ❌ Response time: 1525ms Slow response. Check CDN/cache headers and origin latency.
- ⚠️ 1 render-blocking script(s) in Move non-critical scripts to end of or add
defer/async. - ⚠️ Inline JS+CSS bulk: 57 KB Move large inline scripts/styles to external files to enable caching.
- ✅ Page size: 93 KB Compact HTML payload — well within AI crawler limits.
- ✅ Resource requests: 11 (scripts:10, css:1, img:0) Reasonable request count.
- ✅ Cache-Control set (CDN: Vercel) Cache-Control: public, max-age=0, must-revalidate CDN detected: Vercel
8. Security
- ⚠️ Content-Security-Policy missing Define a CSP to limit script sources — large reduction in XSS surface.
- ⚠️ X-Frame-Options missing Add
X-Frame-Options: SAMEORIGIN(or use CSP frame-ancestors) to prevent clickjacking. - ⚠️ X-Content-Type-Options missing Add
X-Content-Type-Options: nosniffto block MIME-type sniffing. - ⚠️ Referrer-Policy missing Add
Referrer-Policy: strict-origin-when-cross-originfor safer referrers. - ⚠️ Permissions-Policy missing Restrict browser features (camera, mic, geolocation) you don't use.
- ✅ Served over HTTPS
- ✅ No mixed content detected
- ✅ HSTS set max-age=63072000; includeSubDomains; preload
9. robots.txt and sitemap.xml Audit
- ❌ sitemap.xml not found Add /sitemap.xml — required for reliable AI/SERP discovery.
- ⚠️ robots.txt not found No /robots.txt was reachable. Add one explicitly — silence is read differently by different crawlers, and you lose the chance to control AI bots.
10. LLM / AI Crawler Accessibility
- ⚠️ llms.txt missing Add /llms.txt — a concise, link-rich summary that helps LLMs orient on your site.
- ⚠️ skill.md missing Add /skill.md describing what your site lets agents do — speeds up agent task routing.
- ⚠️ /.well-known/security.txt missing Publish a /.well-known/security.txt with at least a Contact: line. Crawlers and security researchers expect it; AI systems use it as a trust signal.
11. Positioning Clarity
- ⚠️ No clear About/Team link Add an About or Team link in the nav or footer so LLMs can identify the company.
- ✅ H1 communicates value The Modern School Management System for Nigerian Schools
- ✅ Value-prop language detected
- ✅ Pricing path discoverable
- ✅ Contact / signup path discoverable
12. Missing or Hard-to-Find Information
- ⚠️ 5 data point(s) could not be found from public pages · Recent launches · Blog post activity · New hires · Executive team · Case studies or testimonials
13. Recommended Fixes
⚠️ Publish a sitemap.xml Generate /sitemap.xml automatically (Next.js: app/sitemap.ts). Include every canonical URL.
⚠️ Add JSON-LD structured data Start with Organization on the root layout and SoftwareApplication or Product on /pricing. Add FAQPage on any FAQ section.
⚠️ Raise your text-to-HTML ratio Strip unused inline scripts/styles and move large bundles to external files. AI crawlers struggle when most of the response is markup.
⚠️ Add /llms.txt A short Markdown-flavored summary at the root. Include your H1, value prop, top 5–10 links, and pricing summary.
⚠️ Reduce response time Push static HTML to a CDN edge cache. If you must server-render per-request, profile DB/template work and add
Cache-Control: s-maxage=….⚠️ Make your About/Team page reachable Add a top-nav or footer link to /about or /team so LLMs can identify the entity behind the site.
⚠️ Create a robots.txt Even a minimal robots.txt is better than none. Always reference your Sitemap and explicitly address AI bots.
⚠️ Publish a date signal Add
<time datetime="2026-05-17">or<meta property="article:published_time">. AI ranking heavily weights freshness.⚠️ Speed up homepage rendering AI crawlers commonly time out around 3s. Cache the HTML, ship less JS for the first paint, and pre-render the hero section server-side.
⚠️ Set a meaningful
<title>30–60 chars. Lead with the brand or product, then the value prop.<title>CrawlProof — AEO audits for AI crawlers</title>⚠️ Add a canonical link Prevents dup-content drift and tells AI crawlers which URL is authoritative.
<link rel="canonical" href="https://yoursite.com/" />⚠️ Complete Open Graph tags AI bots use OG for fast disambiguation. Add all four:
<meta property="og:title" content="Your Page Title" /> <meta property="og:description" content="50–160 char description of this page." /> <meta property="og:image" content="https://yoursite.com/og-image.jpg" /> <meta property="og:url" content="https://yoursite.com/" /> <meta property="og:type" content="website" /> <meta property="og:site_name" content="YourSite" />⚠️ Add Twitter Card meta tags Used by social platforms and AI agents for richer previews.
<meta name="twitter:card" content="summary_large_image" /> <meta name="twitter:title" content="Your Page Title" /> <meta name="twitter:description" content="50–160 char description." /> <meta name="twitter:image" content="https://yoursite.com/og-image.jpg" />⚠️ Add more substantive homepage content AI models need 300+ words of visible body text to summarize and recommend a site. Add a value-prop paragraph, a short FAQ, and a 'how it works' section.
⚠️ Add /skill.md Describe what an agent can do with your site (e.g., 'Search docs', 'Look up pricing'). Useful for agentic flows.
⚠️ Publish /.well-known/security.txt A security contact builds trust with crawlers and researchers. Minimal example:
Contact: mailto:security@yourdomain.com Expires: 2027-01-01T00:00:00.000Z Preferred-Languages: en⚠️ Eliminate render-blocking head scripts Add
deferorasyncto any<script src="…">in<head>, or move it to the end of<body>.⚠️ Externalize large inline JS/CSS Inline blobs aren't cacheable. Move >50 KB inline payloads to versioned external files.
⚠️ Define a Content-Security-Policy Start with
Content-Security-Policy-Report-Onlyto learn safe sources, then enforce. Cuts XSS blast radius.⚠️ Declare an author byline Add
<meta name="author" content="Name">or a visible byline withrel="author". Combine with Person JSON-LD for E-E-A-T.⚠️ Add X-Frame-Options
X-Frame-Options: SAMEORIGIN(or CSPframe-ancestors) blocks clickjacking via iframe embeds.⚠️ Add X-Content-Type-Options
X-Content-Type-Options: nosniffprevents browsers from MIME-sniffing responses.⚠️ Set a Referrer-Policy
Referrer-Policy: strict-origin-when-cross-originis a safe default.⚠️ Set a Permissions-Policy Restrict browser features you don't use, e.g.
Permissions-Policy: camera=(), microphone=(), geolocation=().
